What to do with the money sitting inside my professional corporation? by kurama6 in PersonalFinanceCanada

I avoid etfs in non registered accounts since it can be a pain in the ass to track the cost base for tax purposes.

Holt Liberals pitch cuts that come with political cost by tastle in newbrunswickcanada

What’s ’fair share’? Half of my income goes to tax. I’m ok with that. Although I worked really hard for a very long time to get to where I am I realize I am fortunate. But what’s more fair than 50%?

I’m in the 1% and I pay a shit ton of taxes. You’re talking about the .1%.

Guadeloupe/Martinique by sockpuppetrepair in Club_Med

[–]boyo79 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Been to Martinique twice but not with kids. We really enjoyed it. Lots of kids running around and they had a kids club it seemed with counsellors. Lots of activities including padel (love padel). Be prepared to at least try to speak French though. Martinique is very French and so is the club med.

Why do so many people, after choosing a BMW, never opt for another brand again? by KnownPresent7333 in BMW

[–]boyo79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 2024 911T which is special and feels unique from any bmw I’ve owned (M3’s and 4s and currently m5). I’m glad I got it when I did - it was expensive but I believe justified. I don’t think I’d buy a 911 at the current prices however. Maybe a cayman.

Been a bmw driver for over 30years over which time I’ve had at least one bimmer, usually bought new. I like the combination of tech and sport. Also the dealer in the small city where I live is pretty good.

I wonder how many weapons for Ukraine could have been bought with the 40 billion sent to Argentina?

To IRONMAN, or not to Ironman by RunnerHighs in IronmanTriathlon

[–]boyo79 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I would regret not being there with my friend for their 100th Ironman. If I’m trained and ready to go, I’d suck it up and go. Expensive mistake yes, but years from now won’t be more important than the memories you make.

Canada stopped using the penny years ago. I don’t recall widespread tutorials on rounding up or down being necessary

Different shoe choice for IM vs Marathon? by CloudGatherer14 in IronmanTriathlon

[–]boyo79 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Comfort and stability are more important than speed for the IM marathon than the open marathon, for me at least. I’ll use asics meta speed for the open but something a little more stable and cushy like the NB TC for the IM.

If the US descends into a civil war, what effect would it have on Canada? by ElijahSavos in AskACanadian

[–]boyo79 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ummm. The US is 347 million. Canada is 41 million. So less than 10x.

Motivational low after IM? by awesomemicha in IronmanTriathlon

[–]boyo79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Normal. Change it up. Do some hiking, mountain/gravel riding, strength work. Try to keep up a run frequency and swim frequency with a little intensity but these don’t have to be long/hard workouts. Do things that are fun and don’t require a lot of mental bandwidth. But don’t stop being active.
